Using common-image-point gathers (CIPs) instead of conventional image gathers for migration velocity analysis is an efficient approach for analyzing migrated images at locations that are related to geological structures. This approach reduces computational costs and may improve migration velocity analysis by acounting for diving energy. However, manually picking CIP locations is tedious and tim...

background :this paper explores the gender-related bilateral differences of extensor and flexor torques of the knee joint at low and high angular velocities in iranian healthy males and females.   methods : 70 healthy subjects (29 males (26.61±4.34 yrs and 41 females with average age of 23.07±3.70 yrs)) were participated in this study. isokinetic peak torque values for knee extensors and flexor...

near-fault ground motions have caused very much damage in the vicinity of seismic sources during recent earthquakes. it is well known that under specific circumstances, intensive ground shakings near fault ruptures may be characterized by short-duration impulsive motions. this pulse-type motion is generally particular to the forward direction, where the fault rupture propagates towards the site...

In the classical approach to digital topology (see e.g. [12] and [13]), graph theoretic tools are used for structuring Z, namely the well-known binary relations of 4-adjacency and 8-adjacency. But neither 4adjacency nor 8-adjacency itself allows an analogue of the Jordan curve theorem (cf. [9]) and, therefore, one has to use a combination of the two adjacencies. To overcome this disadvantage, a...

porosity is one of the fundamental petrophysical properties that should be evaluated for hydrocarbon bearing reservoirs. it is a vital factor in precise understanding of reservoir quality in a hydrocarbon field. log data are exceedingly crucial information in petroleum industries, for many of hydrocarbon parameters are obtained by virtue of petrophysical data. there are three main petrophysical...
